In the fall of 2016, I began work at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities, producing a show called With Good Reason.

When I arrived, With Good Reason'sproducers expressed an interest in transitioning from the traditional, terrestrial format of the show to a more digital-friendly format. In response, I developed a three-phase process to transition from terrestrial- to digitally-focused while maintaining and expanding our listenership along the way.

After six months, we had completed much of Phase 1, growing our subscriber base by 40%.

Phase 1

✔️ Establish a regular digital distribution and promotion schedule✔️ Expand and enhance text posts and social media output✔️ Experiment in short form audio to enhance our distribution

Phase 2
